Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed

No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.
Staight up doomer/doomer-trolling comments will be removed. Reasonable disscustion and asking for hope is fine.

Eh, if you can't find reasons to stay alive, there's always spite.

The universe might be out to get me, but at least I'll go down fighting.

Or, as someone much more versed in words put it:

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Spite is great until it isn't. Then it shatters and won't support weight again.

Poland existed out of spite since over a thousand years. Sure, sometimes spite dwindled and they got conquered, but that was just a new reason for more spite!
